\"Govt<\/div>\n
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde<\/a> on Wednesday said the state government was formulating a new MHADA policy<\/a> to provide affordable housing<\/a> to working women, senior citizens and students. The government will also make Mumbai slum-free, he said while addressing reporters after the lottery draw for the Pune Housing and Area Development Board<\/a> (PHADB) at the Thane district collectorate. <\/p>\n

“Buying a house is a dream for every individual, but due to high costs, many are deprived of it. Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) aims to make housing accessible to the common man,” Shinde, who is also the Housing Minister, said. <\/p>\n

“The government is formulating a new MHADA housing policy, which includes affordable housing, rental housing, and housing for working women, senior citizens and students with hostels,” he said. <\/p>\n

On the delayed redevelopment projects in Mumbai, Thane, Pune and other cities, he said various government agencies, including MHADA, Slum Rehabilitation<\/a> Authority (SRA), City And Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO), have been brought together to accelerate the stalled projects. <\/p>\n


“One of the first large-scale redevelopment projects involves the construction of 17,000 houses in Chembur by the SRA and the MMRDA. This project is expected to set a precedent for clearing long-pending slum rehabilitation and redevelopment plans,” he said. “A slum-free Mumbai is going to be a reality soon. This will also allow those who had to leave Mumbai due to housing issues to return,” he said. Shinde stressed that quality and timely completion of housing projects were the top priorities of his ministry. <\/p>\n

“A house is a lifelong dream, and there should be no compromise on its quality. It cannot be changed repeatedly,” he said. <\/p>\n

Shinde said the new policy will incorporate transportation, infrastructure and essential amenities to ensure a well-rounded living experience for residents. During the lottery draw, 3,662 houses were allotted and the applications received were 93,662. <\/p>\n

Shinde said the entire process was conducted with complete transparency, from application submission to final allotment. He cautioned applicants against falling prey to middlemen, stating, “There is no broker in this system. If anyone claims they can secure an allotment, do not believe them. It is false.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
